The End of Summer Family Night at Bicentennial Park on Tuesday was one last chance for residents to celebrate all that is good about the season.

There were pony rides, a rock climbing wall, vendors, a farmers market, face-painting, free hamburgers and hot dogs, a live band and more.

The free event was offered by the city of Fall River, Greater Fall River Re-Creation Committee, Stanley Street Treatment and Resources and Project ASSIST.

Carol Makhoul brought her two granddaughters to the event, and the first order of business was the face-painting booth. Maya Antoine, 5, and Aija Antoine, 6, were soon showing off their new colors.

“I always look to see what’s going on so I can bring them,” Makhoul said. “My daughter has to work, so I take them out.”

A sea breeze and sunshine washed over families sitting on lawn chairs and blankets in the field. The kids ran and played while the band Trouble Without A Name played for the crowd.

“We really wanted to celebrate summer and the start of school,” said Jamison Souza, Community Development Recreation program director. “We want to make this an annual event.”

Melissa Morango brought her grandchild, Bree Morango, 5, to the End of Summer Family Night along with a neighbor, Scarlet Pereira, 12.

“It’s something to do with the kids,” Morango said. “It’s a nice day, too.”

There were 18 agencies on site offering information and brochures to families, including representatives from the Family Service Association, SSTAR, Project ASSIST, Katie Brown and Southcoast Hospitals Group.
